Overview

Island-Inspired Beach Living — Two Homes, Two Outdoor Retreats, Fully Furnished Experience the essence of coastal living with this rare fully furnished property featuring two separate homes, each with its own private outdoor retreat. Located west of Coast Highway in the heart of Leucadia, this tropical getaway blends laid-back island style with the charm of a classic beach cottage. As you stroll along the paver walkway, you're welcomed by a wood-front patio with custom architectural beams, setting the tone for this breezy escape. Step inside the main residence to find a light-filled, open-concept living space with beachy accents, vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and luxury vinyl plank flooring—all enhancing the home’s tropical vibe. A combination of wood plank walls and ceilings, paired with island-style ceiling fans, creates a relaxed atmosphere that feels like a vacation every day. The spacious great room flows seamlessly into a recently remodeled kitchen featuring granite countertops, a tile mosaic backsplash, and a breakfast-style center island. Stainless steel appliances, including a five-burner gas cooktop, complement the coastal design. A garden-view window and glass back door offer sightlines to the lush backyard oasis. The home includes two generous bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans, plus a large loft with natural wood plank ceilings—perfect as a third bedroom, home office, or creative space. The updated bathroom showcases a walk-in shower, tile flooring, a modern vanity with sleek fixtures, and striking blue accent wall tiles. Step outside to a raised back patio with a custom open-air pergola, a storage shed, and an expansive paver entertaining area—ideal for gatherings. Tropical landscaping wraps around the property, with lush greenery, winding paver pathways, and plenty of space to relax and unwind. The home has been tastefully updated throughout, including windows, kitchen, appliances, and more. Privately tucked away on the lot, the attached guest house offers a charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout with its own separate entrance and living area. Features include modern sliding barn doors, recessed lighting, hardwood floors, a laundry area, and an open kitchenette—providing comfort and privacy for guests or extended family. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard with a spa, a custom island-style gazebo with wood beams and lighting, hardwood-style plank flooring, and a cozy fire pit—a true outdoor oasis. A two-car Keystone paver driveway completes the offering. This fully furnished property is all about lifestyle and location. Whether you're seeking a serene escape, a flexible multi-home setup, a potential short-term rental, or a dreamy surfside haven, this tropical beach retreat delivers it all. The exterior space truly makes you feel like you're on vacation every day. With incredible walkability to endless shops, eateries, and all that Leucadia has to offer—and just steps from Neptune Avenue, Beacons Beach, and Stone Steps Beach—this home captures the ultimate in coastal convenience and charm.
